I've compared the php.ini files and can't find anything related to sessions
that is different. In fact they're almost the same with a few minor
exceptions that should have no effect that I can think of.
Here is the code I'm executing:
?php
[SNIP DATABASE LOAD, ETC.]
echo BUserData array = /BBR\n;
print_r($UserData);
//set the session variables:
$_SESSION['login'] = true;
$_SESSION['ie'] =
(stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],MSIE)) ? true : false;
$_SESSION['id'] = $UserData['id'];
$_SESSION['username'] = $UserData['username'];
$_SESSION['firstname'] = $UserData['firstname'];
$_SESSION['lastname'] = $UserData['lastname'];
$_SESSION['email'] = $UserData['email'];
$_SESSION['foo']= '1234567890';
require_once('includes/classes/User.class.php');
$_SESSION['user'] = new User($UserData['id']);
echo PB_SESSION array = /BBR\n;
var_dump($_SESSION);
echo PBUSERNAME/B = .$_SESSION['user']-get_username().BR\n;
exit;
?
Which properly results in this (as it's all on the same page):
UserData array =
Array ( [id] = 1 [firstname] = Daevid [lastname] = Vincent [email] =
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ) snip
_SESSION array =
array(9) { [login]= bool(true) [ie]= bool(true) [id]= string(1) 1
[username]= string(6) daevid [firstname]= string(6) Daevid
[lastname]= string(7) Vincent [email]= string(17)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [foo]= string(10) 1234567890 [user]=
object(User)#2 (24) { [username:protected]= string(6) daevid
[firstname:protected]= string(6) Daevid [lastname:protected]=
string(7) Vincent [email:protected]= string(17) [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...
snip } }
USERNAME = daevid
Now I load a simple session loading test page with this code:
?php
require_once('includes/classes/User.class.php');
session_start();
echo BSESSION TEST:P/B;
var_dump($_SESSION);
exit;
?
On the working box things are fine (obviously):
SESSION TEST:
array(9) { [login]= bool(true) [ie]= bool(true) [id]= string(1) 1
[username]= string(6) daevid [firstname]= string(6) Daevid
[lastname]= string(7) Vincent [email]= string(17)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [foo]= string(10) 1234567890 [user]=
object(User)#1 (24) { [username:protected]= string(6) daevid
[firstname:protected]= string(6) Daevid [lastname:protected]=
string(7) Vincent [email:protected]= string(17) [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[timestamp:protected]= string(19) -00-00 00:00:00 ... snip } }
but on the broken box I see:
SESSION TEST:
array(9) { [login]= bool(true) [ie]= bool(true) [id]= string(1) 1
[username]= string(6) daevid [firstname]= string(6) Daevid
[lastname]= string(7) Vincent [email]= string(17)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [foo]= string(10) 1234567890 [user]=
object(User)#1 (20) { [username:protected]= string(0)
[firstname:protected]= string(0) [lastname:protected]= string(0)
[email:protected]= string(0) [timestamp:protected]= NULL ... snip
} }
Notice how the regular session info is there, but the User class is all
empty or NULL. So SOME of the $_SESSION is working, but not the User class
portion. This is completely baffling to me. Examining the /tmp/sess_* file
shows this same data.
Here is the session portion of php.ini on the broken box:
[Session]
; Handler used to store/retrieve data.
session.save_handler = files
; Argument passed to save_handler. In the case of files, this is the path
; where data files are stored. Note: Windows users have to change this
; variable in order to use PHP's session functions.
;
; As of PHP 4.0.1, you can define the path as:
;
; session.save_path = N;/path
;
; where N is an integer. Instead of storing all the session files in
; /path, what this will do is use subdirectories N-levels deep, and
; store the session data in those directories. This is useful if you
; or your OS have problems with lots of files in one directory, and is
; a more efficient layout for servers that handle lots of sessions.
;
; NOTE 1: PHP will not create this directory structure automatically.
; You can use the script in the ext/session dir for that purpose.
; NOTE 2: See the section on garbage collection below if

You say it's working on one box and not on the other? Maybe I'm wrong (and sounds like I am) but I thought that you couldn't pass objects between scripts even with serialize()?

No no no. I'm NOT passing data between servers. It's just two pages on the same server. One that sets up the session/class and the other page just re-loads the session. When I talk about two different servers, I copy the entire source/db schema from one server to the other so they are clones for all intents and purposes. One server works the way I'd expect.
